GIG 2021, Round 5 (May 31 thru June 12)

May 29, 2021, 01:36:30 PM

I liked the Yucker run differential question last week so much we'll do questions on the other divisions.

1) The Caray are currently +14 in run differential. Will they be > 0 after the cycle?
Yes (+1)
No (+2)

2). The Harwell are currently -12 in run differential. Will they be >0 after the cycle?
No (+1)
Yes (+2)

3) And then there is the Scully. Anyone who thinks this isn't the toughest division is just plain wrong. The Scully currently sits at +104. Predict their run differential after the cycle.
+5 points for nailing it
+3 points for being within 3 runs
+1 point for being within 10 runs

4) Pick a team, any team. You will get the number of points equal to their won/loss record for the cycle. So if you had picked the Bums last cycle (9-4) you would have gotten +5 points. If you had picked the ACL's (6-7) you would have gotten -1 points. Rattlers (2-11)? Well, that would have hurt at -9. So pick a team, any team you want and see how you do. Oh, one caveat. Once someone makes a selection, that team is now off the board. This assures we don't have 15 teams picking the ACL's, which would be a dumb question if that was allowed. So the quicker you respond the more likely the team you want will be available. To be fair, I won't make a selection until Monday.

Have fun!

These are great questions, Rod. Totally dig 'em. Especially #4.

1) Yes
2) No
3) +123
4) BLUES, baby. We're going 11-2 this round. Not kidding - check the schedule. And just about every star is underperforming, so that's gotta come around at some point, at least a little bit.

Answers:
1) Caray (+52) so that is a Yes (+1)
2) Harwell (-20) so that is a No (+1)
3) Scully (+99). Everyone but HGH (who went low with a 90 guess for +1) completely overshoot that one. In case anyone is interested the Yucker now sits at -131.
